Weekly update 36/52 Örebro life started and horsey bags

We are starting to settle in in Örebro, our new hometown. Örebro for me is like a boomerang, a city that keeps coming back to me. I moved first time to Örebro in 2008 when I studied Economy at the University here. It is pretty close to where I grew up so it was convenient to be able to go back at weekends to hang out with friends and family. After finishing university I got a job here and stayed for a few years. After living in Prague and Moscow we came back and lived in Örebro for a year before Düsseldorf. So here we are again in our new/old city and still it takes time to feel home in a place even though it's been home before. Fun with the new house and to make it home but also so unreal. Is this our house!? Are we living here and a couple of weeks ago I felt ok this was fun but let's go home to Düsseldorf now.
What I find a luxury is that we can drive to Lundsätter our country-house at weekends. It is a place where we all feel nice and close to nature and we have family and friends there. It only takes 40 min to drive so we pack Friday after school and hang out there all weekend.
This week I have started to prepare for a an Autumn market here in Örebro. First time after the move I was opening up all my boxes with hats, hairbands, headbands, illustrations, bags etc. I wanted to create a few new things for this market and made colorful scrunchies and bags from a nice curtain fabric, see below.

Weekly update 38/52 Örebro Autumn market in summer sun

It was exciting to participate at my first market being back in Örebro, Sweden. It was an Autumn market in the beautiful setting of Karlslund Estate in Örebro. Most exhibitor were selling locally grown fruit, veggies and flowers. Also jams, marmelades, bakeries and cheeses. It was a sunny beautiful day and it attracted a lot of people. It was fun to finally again set up my display and show my products. The market stand/table I rented from the organizer and it was perfect size and cute. My best-sellers were my hats in smaller sizes. Amd to next market I need to make more fleece-lined hats since it gets cooler here in Swedem during the winter.

Weekly update 41/52 Time for warmer hats, nice books and last garden projects

October and week 41 and I have been making lots of new jersey hats with fleece lining. The weather is getting colder and colder and yes hat season is here. I will during the week add new fun warm hats in my web-shop. The hats will also be sold at Christmas markets here in Örebro. New this year for me is that I am making baby hats since I got a lot of requests. I find it hard to make baby hats because they look so small, it is hard to remember how small babies are. Also this week big happiness over at new book release from my favorite children book illustrator Sven Nordqvist. "Vägen Hem" a wonderful book with amazing illustrations. I have also bought and planted some new plants inspired from some nice park arrangements here in Örebro. Now lets hope that all the deer in the forrest will not eat all of these, as I forgot to check wether or not these are tasty to them. In our country-house in the forrest they tend to come and eat everything they like and they ...
